There are lot of wrinkles on the muslin backdrops how can remove the wrinkles. Should I iron?

Using a hand steamer while the backdrop is hanging will likely do a better job. However, with your subject not too close to the backdrop, and your lighting on the subject and not the backdrop (as it should be), you really don't have to worry about wrinkles. Wrinkles will not be visible on a correctly lit photograph.

I don't know how to iron, and this thing is way too big. I got a steamer and worked my way slowly, it got a lot better, and I left it mounted for a while it removed most of it. Good luck.

I've had the same experience. I attempted to use a steamer without much improvement. I would not use an iron because you can actually scortch the fabric. I have only the black and white muslims and Photoshop any visible wrinkles out which are very little that are visible. I'm not sure how you are using the black or white but I use it for high key and low key effects so actual background showing is limited. Hope that was helpful.

Ooooo I usually spray (not steam) my backdrop with water once I get it up and I instantly start seeing the wrinkles smooth out. You would want to do this at least a 30min to a hour before your shoot to give it an ample amount of time to dry before you start shooting though. Once dry - it's perfect!

Most muslin backdrops have a pocket for the crossbar to go through, Paper drops have a cardboard core. If you have a muslin with no pocket you can have one sewn in or use some background hanging clips with rings. JTL and Promaster make some that would work nicely do an Amazon search, both brands are available

It comes folded up in a small pouch. If you don't mind all the creases from being folded, then use the pouch. After I ironed out all the fold lines, I threw the pouch away and roll the backdrop on a 6' piece of 3" plastic pipe to keep it from wrinkling.

Mine was like a pop up so really didn't have any noticeable wrinkles. They should settle in a few days after being open.But I'm sure a little steam should work without damage. I just wouldn't touch it with an iron. A steam machine wouldwork best if the wrinkles are really bad.

I think an iron might melt the material. Maybe a steamer would work. I personally didn't see the wrinkles while watching a movie.

You need to iron the backdrop to get rid of the wrinkles. You shouldn't see the tent in your pix - just the backdrop.

I have used a hair dryer, and it helped with the folds and wrinkles. Just be careful not to let any one place get too hot. Keep the dryer moving.

The best way to get rid of the wrinkles is to use a steamer. A clothes steamer works but takes a long time; one of those industrial floor steamers works a bit faster, but it does take time.

I tried it with the white muslin, and I suggest you don't. It was more wrinkled coming out than into the washer and dryer. My wife had a steamer unit that did the best when the muslin was hanging on the cross-beam. I suggest you do the same.

You can just steam them out...or better yet, I store these backdrops bunched up...and honestly, the random wrinkles add to the character of the background.

Probably not unless using a considerable amount of weight. FYI, the wrinkles can be more quickly removed by using a hair dryer and tension. This may allow you to remove the wrinkles first then make the screen.

You iron the collar first, then put the back on presser up to the collar and take several movements of the press to get to the bottom of the back, turn to front and fit presser on the front up to the collar. It may take another movement down to get the rest of lower front. Do the other side the same way, turn and flatten each sleeve flat and press each one and done. no wrinkles anywhere, I spray inside of shirts with spray starch before pressing.

I sprayed with water (misted it) then ironed it. Most wrinkles came out and what did not, eventually came out from the steam of the shower. Good- luck

If u fold it they dont come out without iron or steaming. I've learned through other photographers that theres less wrinkles if you roll it up. However i find that due to color it's hardly noticeable. Good backdrop.

Its muslin. Wash in cold water, Put it in the dry till it's almost dry and shape it over the rack. Mighht need a little steaming if wrinkles bother you.

My experience: If you hit it with plenty of light the wrinkles won't show. You want a high key, completely white background anyway. So expose high enough or you might have some extra work in Photoshop.

Yes, it will get wrinkled by nature of folding it up. It is also a thinner material which lends itself to wrinkle. I only used the black backdrop and there were definite wrinkles. I recommend steaming.
